When should a shareholder agreement be prepared?

A shareholders' agreement should ideally be drawn up before the company's formation or at the latest immediately thereafter, provided multiple people are involved in the business. Experience shows that early arrangements can prevent later conflicts and misunderstandings. If these issues are not addressed in a timely manner, they can lead to high costs and significant emotional stress, especially in disputes between shareholders.
